Conn. police K-9 recruit has rewarding new job
The Danbury police department’s newest recruit is a bit on the young side, but don’t let that fool you.
Zeke, a 22-month-old, black German shepherd, and his handler, Officer Greg Topa, began training together earlier this September.
Earlier this week, the partners worked on obedience training, as well as sniffing out marijuana and heroin at a local soccer field.
Jars containing the scents were hidden in a series of plastic pipes. When Zeke found the pipe containing the jar, he received a reward.
“It’s so much fun coming to work every day and learning new techniques,” said Topa, an eight-year veteran of the force.
